My Dad’s Glitch In The Matrix

This happened to my dad a few years ago while driving through Georgia. He used to drive from Indiana to Florida every Fall and come back in the Spring. And he didn’t take the highway, either. He took US 27, which like I-75, goes from Michigan to Florida, except it’s more scenic. My dad has always been a vagabond, and he enjoyed the drive to and from more so than the time spent there. Maybe, he did a lot of partying there, so maybe not.

If I had to guess, I’d say this happened 15 to 20 years ago. He was driving through Georgia and while on a stretch of road that went through the country, he came upon a bar. There was a long driveway to it, as it sat way off the road, and there was a sign for it near the road that said Charlie Daniels was playing there that night. He went to the bar, found out it was only a couple dollars to get in for the show, and he sat there and drank until the show later in the evening.

A year later he was driving through, recognized his surroundings, and kept an eye out, but as he got close, he discovered the bar wasn’t there. Not only was it not there, the driveway wasn’t there, the sign wasn’t there, and he said it looked as if nothing had ever been there. The grass was all grown up and there were a bunch of trees where the bar should’ve been.

Confused, he drove down the road and saw a gas station, so he stopped to get gas. When he went in he saw the employee there and a police officer hanging out. He asked the employee if the bar down the road had gone out of business and she asked what bar. He told her of his last trip there and seeing Charlie Daniels play in the bar. She said there has never been a bar there, and the officer told him not only was there never a bar there, it was a dry county.

Dad said the officer looked at him as if he were on some kind of drugs, so dad left and went back by there to have another look. He knew it was the right spot, but still to this day can’t come to terms with it not being there.

A Keto Lifestyle

A couple weeks ago I posted about going Keto. I haven’t yet, but I’m slowly moving my way towards that.

That’s not why I’m writing this. I’m writing to tell you that if you want to get a ton of bot accounts to follow you and to like a post of yours without even reading it just to promote their own site, name one of your posts something that has to do with diet or exercise. Or both! Double shot! Make sure you add the proper tags to the post to drive them to you quicker!

Trust me, this post will get a dozen or more likes and probably a couple of follows, too. Keep a look out!

Oh yeah, my second season of my podcast has started already, and I’m now doing a YouTube channel for it, too! If you’d like, go check that out!

Going Keto

I’m sick of being a fat, out of shape, sweat hog. So I’m going to be changing my life around. First things first. Diet and exercise. Keto sounds like a plan, it’s supposed to be great for those who have high blood pressure and diabetes. Count me in.

I don’t know much about Keto, so I did a search on it to see what it was all about, and I came upon this site that is supposed to be for beginners, ketocycle.diet. You answer questions, tell them how old you are, how much you weigh, and how tall you are, and how much you’d like to weigh and they tell you a meal plan to help you get there for a fee. I wouldn’t mind paying if it would help me lose weight and set me on a good path.

Instead, I’m told that my height and weight are SO OUTRAGEOUSLY IMPOSSIBLE that it could never happen in a million years and there’s nothing they can do for me unless I change the numbers to something that they can deal with. Something they can handle. God forbid they help someone who’s actually fat and needs it. No, this Keto diet is only for those who are already in perfect shape, they just want to be trendy.

After that, there’s nothing else. There’s no “Are you sure this is correct? If so, continue with your customized plan.” No, none of that. They can’t help you, because they can’t wrap their mind around someone being fat. So they actually planned that message. They actually refused to design their website to include plans for people who are overweight and need the help. They actually wrote out this message and programmed it onto their site and told it to pop up when fat people come by so that they know there’s no help for them here. They’re unwanted here.

Or I could go and change my weight so that it’s more along what they can fathom, with their tiny little brains that are open to a very tiny world that doesn’t weigh anything. So I could lie, basically, just to let them take my money to “help” me. Which they’d probably just criticize me instead. Point at me and talk quietly amongst themselves while staring at me.

So instead of wasting my money with a site that openly doesn’t want to help us disgusting ass fat fucks to lose weight, I’ll just search meals for myself and do it all myself for free, like a friend suggested. Fuck that site, they can suck a fat one.

My New Podcast

I’ve upgraded from a phone to a home studio, so I changed my podcast to In The Studio With Matt. Same crap, different name. Not only will this one be on all the same podcast sites and apps it was before, but it’ll also be on YouTube! If you don’t want to see my face, and I can’t say I blame you, don’t go the YouTube route. Also, don’t watch the video below. The new season starts on January 4th!

Asexuality

First of all, let me say that I’ve gotten myself so busy with my podcast and now with the internet radio, that I just forgot about this place. I’m glad people are still stopping by.

Second, I really had to get this off my chest and I just wasn’t feeling any other outlet at the moment, so here we are.

I get feeling all kinds of ways when having kids is brought up. I think it would be awesome if every person on this planet could get to be a parent, especially if they truly want it, no matter the reason.

However, I also feel that this planet is seriously overpopulated with far too many people reproducing who have no right reproducing. That’s why this world is overpopulated. Most people having kids are only having kids because they wanted to fuck and didn’t use protection. Not because they were decent candidates to be a parent, and not because they wanted the kid. But because they had a hardon and needed to bust up inside someone.

Unfortunately the problem with that is, most of the people who are having kids because of that reason aren’t smart enough humans to be teaching another human how to be a good human. And the dumber they get, generation after generation, and the more they have, so that every set of parents is spreading their plague of dumbass genetics all over the place, not just in one direction.

I also feel like, for me personally, I’ve always wanted kids, but I KNOW I am not a good candidate to be a dad. If I became a dad, I’d ruin that pristine little mind by shrapneling my bullshit all through that baby’s brain. And then they’d be starting preschool looking at other kids playing with certain toys and thinking, “Yeah, you seem like the kind of baby bitch that would play with that toy” instead of making friends. I don’t want that for my kid. I want my kid to turn out better than me. I don’t want that kid to live a life like I have. And I’m not good enough to give them that life, so I chose to not be a dad.

It helped that my wife can’t have kids. It also helped in making her a miserable mess for years because she wanted to be a mom so badly. I watched her cry, and sob, and hate herself for having yet another miscarriage. I watched it change who she was as a person, and I feel so terrible for her. Just thinking about it now while I type this is making me tear up. Family was everything to her and now she can’t have one in that respect.

It eats at me that I couldn’t give that to her, on both accounts. Naturally I have no control over her body keeping her from getting pregnant, but I can’t stop my not wanting to have a kid.

New Gif

Howdy. So I’ve been busy, and that’s keeping me from my blogly duties. For that, I apologize.

However, I have come with gifts. I had an idea for a gif after I saw this video, so I turned it into a gif, put the words on it, and now it’s forever online. Behold…

If you would like to share that, go ahead! If you have your own gif editing software and would like to add your own joke in there, you can do that, too!

What do I use? I used GIMP to add the words. It was easy, but time consuming. I was dedicated to the joke, so I made it work.

Anyway, TTFN!

Oh also, my new internet radio station, Aneurysm Radio, will now officially launch on December 10th at noon EST. I had to push it back a week. In the meanwhile, check out AneurysmRadio.com!
